Connection Keeper
Surprisingly as it may sound, dial-up connections still exist and are being used nowadays, particularly in rural and very remote areas without access to cable. The main problem with dial-up is the fact that it is rather unstable, and you are always at risk of losing the connection if the system detects you are idle.
Overview
Connection Keeper is a tool specially designed for dial-up connections that mimics internet browsing at random intervals, preventing the connection from appearing idle and avoiding ISPs from dropping the connection due to inactivity.
Features
- Rugged interface reminiscent of the early 1990s
- Status bar to check connection activity
- Settings tab for connection details and error reports
- Automatic redialing to maintain a stable connection
- Popup window management to prevent intrusive windows
Additional Tools
The tool includes extra features to enhance your browsing experience. One of these functions is the popup window management, which prevents annoying windows from using bandwidth and taking over your screen when visiting specific websites. The tool uses various methods such as simulating button clicks, keystrokes, sending window messages, or forced termination to close these windows seamlessly.
Conclusion
If you live in an area where cabled internet connection is not possible and are compelled to use dial-up, consider trying out Connection Keeper to maintain a stable connection and prevent interruptions while browsing.
